Olivine friction at the base of oceanic seismogenic zones [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research, 2007
We investigate the strength and frictional behavior of olivine aggregates at temperatures and effective confining pressures similar to those at the base of the seismogenic zone on a typical ridge transform fault. Triaxial compression tests were conducted on dry olivine powder (grain size ≤60 μm) at effective confining pressures between 50 and 300 MPa ...

Physical characteristics of subduction interface type seismogenic zones revisited

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2011
International audienceBased on global earthquake catalogs, the hypocenters, nodal planes, and seismic moments of worldwide subduction plate interface earthquakes were extracted for the period between 1900 and 2007.

Superplastic nanofibrous slip zones control seismogenic fault friction

open access: yesScience, 2014
Understanding the internal mechanisms controlling fault friction is crucial for understanding seismogenic slip on active faults. Displacement in such fault zones is frequently localized on highly reflective (mirrorlike) slip surfaces, coated with thin ...
